Abstract | Service-learning and residential-learning are two educational practices for integrated education which stimulates students to synthesize what they learn in different courses and to connect in- and out-of-classroom experiences. These two approaches have been adopted by an increasing number of higher education institutions in Asia in order for students to cultivate knowledge, skills and values that are essential to civic engagement and global citizenship. This paper aims to critically assess the learning perceived by students who participated in a recent cross-border service-learning program organized by a residential college (RC) of a Macau university in a township in Sichuan Province of China which was badly hit by the Great Earthquake in 2008. Several key facets of students’ perceive learning through active engagement in the student-led service activities are identified and examined, and the results are cross-checked with the five intended learning outcomes of the program. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of how to improve educational programming in the intertwined yet under-researched context of service-learning and residential college in the East Asia region. |
